A few days after I got home from Estonia I had to gather all my energy to go to the
town of Hanko (Hangö in Swedish), the southernmost place in Finland. The town is known to be a summer town and very popular among people who like to sail. There's a strong majority of Swedish speaking Finns in Hanko.
This time the "hankoish" summer weather was not present (it was raining) and towards the evening I was getting nervous whether we would actually get the chance to attend the kayaking course we had signed up for...
We stayed at
Hotelboat Hanko. The kayaking course was (Saturday & Sunday) quite heavy but a lot of fun! Two of us girls took part in it, and a few other friends came with us just to see the town of Hanko and attend "The opening of Hanko Casino", dresscode: coctail dresses mandatory;) So on Saturday evening we had dinner at
Origo and then checked out the local night club, the Casino.
Here are a few photos of that adventure (the kayaking photos are in my mobile phone, and I hope to upload them later - naturally I couldn't take my big camera with me in the kayak!).

Hyvää nimpparia! Oon täällä käynytkin katselemassa juttuja uusista reissuista :)
Ihanaa kun päivittelet Suomen reissuista myös! Hienoja tunnelmallisia kuvia!
That DJ nails it!
Oi, toi Hangon kasinon suihkulähdekuva oli upea! Ja kiva että pääsit itsekin kuviin mukaan. Se vaatii aina vähän ekstraefforttia. :)
